Guys tanning
 

I'm think I'm going to begin to go to a tanning salon. What are your thoughts about guys going to a tanning salon? I'm not going to base my decision on the opinions given here, I'm more just curious what others thought.

Re: Guys tanning
 

They want to get a tan??

Re: Guys tanning
 

I think I'll have to go with "freaking fabulous," but I'll refrain from posting the pic.

Re: Guys tanning
 

Meh. I do it. Some of my friends call me a metro but it's better than looking pale.

What's wrong with a guy tanning?

I don't understand why it's so looked down on for guys to look good.

Re: Guys tanning
 

It's sooooo totally gay dude. I go twice a week. Call me if you need an oil partner.

Re: Guys tanning
 

I was just thinking about this today. My buddy was telling me about some high pressure tanning bed that you only need to use once a week...

He said something about it filtering out the bad rays so you could get tan quickly. I guess its crazy expensive, but if I could stay tan going in three or four times a month I'd be all over it.

Anyways, anyone know anything about these?

Re: Guys tanning
 

I've never been to a tanning bed but since I don't work outside anymore, I'm buying a tanning room and a bed this week.

Re: Guys tanning
 

Not only will tanning turn you gay, but it will give you cancer. Seriously, tanning is terrible. You'll also age much quicker if you tan regularly.

Going to any "salon" makes you a metro imo.

Re: Guys tanning
 

As much as I care about how I look, I don't think I'd ever use a tanning bed.

I do go lay outside in the sun occasionally to tan, so I don't know why I'd never use a tanning bed.

dude, go tanning. guys who say its gay are just too ugly for it to make a difference anyways. plus there are ALWAYS nice looking chicks there.

i go 2/3x a week then go home and eat a pizza to celebrate.

Re: Guys tanning
 

Back when I was a HS Senior there was a really hot girl that I wanted to SIIHP that worked there so I would go in with my shirt off and tanned body and make her drool over me. She was in one of my classes as well at school. So she came in one day and complimented me and then we started hanging out and I SIIHP. It was glorious....Tanning is +EV.

those have got to be quality women you find at the tanning salon

Re: Guys tanning
 

I go to tanning salons all the time. Not only do I come out darker, but I've found it's a great way to meet other gay guys..

Seriously, it's not that big a deal. Think of it this way, there will be a lot more girls there.

Re: Guys tanning
 

tanning booths in great moderation are better than long exposure to the sun. I say thumbs up!

Re: Guys tanning
 

The only thing that stopped me from tanning is the people in their 40's who's skin feels like leather b/c they tanned when they were younger. I've been thinking about this for a long long time. Im also convinced I'll look weird tan.

well judging from your avatar, you can be pretty damn picky

Re: Guys tanning
 

I would never go to a tanning salon, not because I think it's necessarily gay or anything, just because I'm a pale Irish guy and I've come to accept it.

That said, I've found that people I know who do go to tanning salons, tend to be self-obsessed assholes, and this applies to both men and women.

once again i agree entirely with poboy. im pale and irish as well. i think i'd look better with a tan, but im not going to a salon three times a week to do it. plus i usually just burn, i sort of turn pink and then back to white.

if i spent a long time on vacation or at the beach i wouldnt mind picking up a tan, but other than that its not happening. in general people who have getting a tan built into their weekly schedule arent people i get along with.

Re: Guys tanning
 

I'm kind of surprised at OOT's general opinion towards guys tanning. although I suppose this thread might be self-selecting or something like that.

How picky can I be?

Re: Guys tanning
 

I'm all for gays tanning. If gays want to go to a tanning salon, get married, adopt, whatever, it's all cool. I think gays tanning is fine, don't even know why you'd ask.

Re: Guys tanning
 

my thoughts: U R GAY.

Re: Guys tanning
 

It's unhealthy and you'll make an uglier old dude if you live that long. And I was going to say it's completely gay, but another guy said metrosexual, so since guys wear earrings and put mousse in their hair these days without laughing, I'll adjust and settle for saying it's completely metro.

Now this sounds like your standard American health program, just add booze, coffee, and cigarettes for a complete breakfast!
